Eh, he (not me) was trying to convince another guy to not go in. We have had several good laughs about how you and Ed think I'm him.
you talk to jerry about this stuff? what a conversation that must be.......
"not-jerry": hey jerry, I got something for you hehe, you're gonna love this, it's pretty funny.
jerry: (stops combing his mustache) what's up, "not-jerry"? I was just about to go do some unusual attitudes in low IFR in mountainous terrain with my wife and BFF onboard. or as I like to call it, "an approach". wanna go?
"not-jerry": hehe, maybe another time. so I was online where people were totally trashing everything you do as a pilot....
jerry: oh yeah, youtube?
"not-jerry": nnno, the other place online that points out how horrible of a pilot you are.
jerry: oh, you mean r/flying?
"not-jerry": hehe, no, not that one.
jerry: was it r/shttyaskflying? those guys are great!
"not-jerry": nope, the OTHER other place that always trashes you. you know, they take screenshots of you in 60 degree banks, descending at 2500fpm below minimums, full deflection off the localizer....
jerry: you sure it isn't reddit?
"not-jerry": why don't we just call it 'the internet'. the internet, where pretty much everyone thinks you're a horrible pilot.
jerry: the internet is groovy.
"not-jerry": well this is also groovy....so every time the internet is talking about how bad you are at flying, hehe, well, hehe, they think I'm you hehehe. pretty funny, right? gosh that's a doozie!
jerry: so wait, every time they talk about my poor flying skills, they are actually talking about you? but you don't even have a mustache....
"not-jerry": no, they aren't talking about ME, they are talking about YOU but they think I'm you.
jerry: so who's actually the horrible pilot? can't be me, I have the aviator shades to prove it!
"not-jerry": uh, hehe, it's you, clearly, but they think you and me are the same person.
jerry: but we're not.
"not-jerry": hehe, yeah, that's where it's, like, kinda funny.
jerry: hey, two horrible pilots don't make one good pilot!
"not-jerry": you got a point there, jerry.....who isn't me.
jerry: hey man, cool story bro. thanks for riding along!!
"not-jerry": enjoy your approach.
